Council

County Council is composed of the mayors and deputy mayors of each of the sixteen towns and townships, or area municipalities which comprise the County of Simcoe.  The head of County Council is called the Warden.  The members of County Council elect a Warden from amongst the council members at an Inaugural Meeting, held each December.
